On "Morning Joe," the host said Trump's refusal to press [President Enrique] Peña Nieto in person about funding a border wall between the US and Mexico demonstrated Trump's lack of confidence as a leader.

"If that's the center of your campaign, how do you not get the job done when you're there?" Scarborough said.

He added: "He had the guy in front of him and he choked. He choked! I can't stand people who choke under pressure."

What happened to the tough guy all these Trump voters thought they were electing? The two-fisted, doesn't-back-down "blue-collar billionaire"?

But it occurs to me that one of the best-known songs about standing up to an adversary -- a classic to many people in Trump Country -- is actually about not having the nerve to stand up.

I'd give the shirt right off of my back
If I had the guts to say

Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more....

That's Trump -- he acts as if he's ready to tell his enemies where to get off and his fans don't even realize that as soon as they're face to face, he'll back down.

UPDATE I cut the tweet from Vic Berger IV. I'm informed that he's an anti-Trump mocker.
